I need advice. I am wanting to build a fairly large pergola off the back of my house. It will be about 18 foot wide and stretch out past the back of the house approximately 14 feet. My dilemma is do I attach it to the house with a register board or do I make it free standing right up against the house. My house siding is a brick veneer so one of the challenges I have is how would I attach the register board to the brick. Also, would that be secure and strong enough to support the pergola if I attached the pergola using a register board attached to the brick veneer.
The reason why I want the pergola right up against the house is I would like to put some corrugated covering on top of the first six feet or so of the pergola so I can have the back patio door be under a cove case I want to be out there during the cover in case I want to be out there during the rain.
I would love to hear some advice and input from people who have experience in this area. Thanks in advance for your advice.
